You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Every choral leader in the western world will tell you it's gold not golden and then they will rap your knuckles with their conductors' batons if you make that error again. ;)

Yeah, but golden scans better.

From while I was on vay-cay:

Okay. Add this to Jargon:

Q. "I'm wearing X on my head right now and it's fucking great"?

Done!

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti

Hey, a good job you did of that. And guess what came up in the quote box when I went to look at the FAQ? "Lesson the second: ask the right questions." --Spike.

golden scans better.

I was going to say that.

The random quote generator isn't used on the FAQ. It always has that quote. Sorry to disappoint...

Because a lot of people skip and skim in Natter (eg me), can we please have a separate thread to say thanks when our Secret Santa gifts arrive? Or can we agree that it's OK to say thanks in Beep Me or Press?

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

It's a bit much for Beep Me or Press, I think. I'm all for a separate thread.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

A while ago, I posted some proposed FAQ stuff about the John H Natter Diet and something else, I forget what. Can those things be added?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I know we've talked about Natter 5 titles, but was anything decided? Natter 4's at 9000+ posts, so we'll need a new thread soon.

Our wings are not tired.

I don't usually like the thought of more threads, but it would be nice to read about the Secret Santa gifts arriving. I skip like crazy and would miss it in Natter.
